Environmental Lawyer

Environmental complaints can be filed against an individual in either criminal or civil court. Many statutes, regulations and extensive case law govern this area of law. Therefore it can be particularly difficult to understand. Oftentimes, it is left to the discretion of the District Attorney to decide whether it will seek criminal or civil penalties.Due to the broad scope of environmental laws, a thorough understanding of local agencies that oversee these regulations and statutes is required. Additionally, extensive research of both state and federal environmental laws and statutes is essential. Environmental law can be very controversial, as some feel that many of the regulations may be either too strict or even unnecessary.
